Recently i was looking for another approaches how to use c++ features in kernel mode drivers. I found some references, but no one will fullfill my needs & desires to use also boost & std (at least partially).

Some time ago my friend show me a way how to add mentioned libraries to kernel code, so i decided to do it from scratch, do some minimalistic approach with some kind of ‘manual’ and PoC, and maybe it can be for someone, except myself, usefull.

Sometimes in kernel developement is needed to process some user mode data. But some of data – structs are internal and not so well documented, and due to this are available functions which work with these structures, but these are often exported just for user mode only. What are options in that case ?
